"He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight." – James Gordon

Welcome. I am Darkknight2149. Having been a member of this site since early 2014, I mainly edit articles pertaining to fiction (especially, but not limited to, comic books). However, if I see an error (such as a typo) on random articles of any category that I just so happen to be reading, I may try to fix it. I also monitor articles, and search for and remove vandalism, original research, unsourced material, and other unconstructive edits. However, don't mistake me for an administrator.

Aside from the mainstream Misplaced Pages, you can find me on DC Comics Wiki, Gotham Wiki, Wookiepedia and as an administrator at The Human Centipede Wiki. You can click here for my real name and picture.

Last but not least (actually, definitely least), watch out for my evil twin on Misplaced Pages.

Always remember

Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia. Rumours, speculation and original research are generally prohibited from articles. Reliable sources are always preferred when claims are made in articles and are often necessary. Edits are made under the over all goal of improving the site, not for personal/emotional reasons. Misplaced Pages is a collaborative effort.

Possible vandalism misinterpretation

This is very important! If I ever mistake your edits for vandalism when you are actually trying to be helpful, please do not hesitate to inform me at my Talk Page. This especially goes if you're a new user, so please do not let a simple misunderstanding keep you from editing Misplaced Pages. I do not believe that I make this mistake often, but this is nonetheless an important message to get across.

Words to live by

"If roles are described outside of the plot summary, keep such descriptions concise. Interpretations in the form of labels (e.g. protagonist, villain, main character) should be avoided."

– Misplaced Pages guidelines, per WP:ANTAGONIST

If you are wondering why I have reverted your edits, keep this in mind.

Edit warring is not the answer

After you have reverted someone once or twice and it becomes clear that there is a disagreement, discuss the issue instead of edit warring (unless the edit is vandalistic or otherwise not constructive).

"Vote stacking"

Despite a rather unproven accusation from early 2017, I do not condone the act of vote stacking, which WP:CANVASS defines as "an attempt to sway consensus by selectively notifying editors who have or are thought to have a predetermined point of view or opinion". This act is not acceptable and should not be tolerated, even if some editors falsely believe that I may have done so in the past.

List of articles I have written and/or created

Articles that I began or created that were either previously redirects to other articles or were non-existent. This generally does not include redirects that were created when I moved an existing article to a new page.

Full fledged articles

Disambiguation pages

Redirect pages

3

Explanations:

^ Pity is the sidekick of the Spider-Man enemy known as the Gentleman. The reason this redirects to Gentleman (comics) is because not very much is known about the Pity character and all of the information we do know about her is in the Gentleman article (hence why she redirects to that article). If anyone would like to turn one of these redirects into a full fledged article, make sure you have enough information so that it isn't a stub.

^^ Avery Twombey is the real name of the DC Comics character, Cypher, hence why Avery Twombey is a redirect for Cypher (DC Comics).

^^^ I created four redirects for the Dollmaker (comics) page just in case people try to search for the character by the name he uses in the Gotham TV series. I will not create more than these for, as that would be unnecessary and potentially overkill.

^^^^ Successor to the Dollmaker. Needs a redirect because it has been suggested that Dollhouse's section in the Dollmaker (comics) article be split into its own article. Dollhouse obviously is a different moniker than "Dollmaker", hence another reason for the redirect.

^^^^^ Previously a redirect for another article. Later turned into a full article by another user.

^^^^^^ Redirects to a page about a fictional character that has been marketed as "the Bride of Hannibal."

^^^^^^^ Eduardo Flamingo is the real name of the Flamingo, a fictional character.

^^^^^^^^ Mr Stacey Boss is a fictional recurring character in IZombie.

Articles that I am in the process of re-writing

These are articles I am in the process of rewriting. I claim no ownership over these articles (obviously), as that would be very naive. Misplaced Pages is, after all, a collaborative effort.

None of these three articles are anywhere near where they should be in terms of quality but I do believe that they've been greatly improved over what they used to be. Editing them has been tough, as professional third party sources have been very scarce. To be honest, I'm not even sure if there are enough sources for the articles to be considered notable, so if you nominate any of them for deletion, I will not act against it. Until that happens, I and any other editor that comes along will have to continue to improve upon them (though they aren't my highest priority at this very moment).
